    AbstractHealthcare workers have been widely recognized as the mainstay of healthcare systems. Mostly incorporated as human resources into healthcare planning, their expression in the public policies of Chile and Latin America has undergone changes in compliance with the socio-economic and economic development of the countries in the region as well as changes in their healthcare systems. This article offers a historical review of healthcare human resources planning in Chile from a government-level standpoint; thus, enabling the characterization of a path that has added tools from the economic sciences to the healthcare workers’ own diagnosis, promoting policy actions to improve planning and management at national level, although the results have been inconsistent. Today, the great interest by national and international entities in healthcare human resources constitutes a growing concern about current problems, asymmetries, and expected results-- all of which increase the complexity of healthcare staffing and human resources planning.
